Answer:

14.58%

Explanation:

WACC = weight of equity x cost of equity + weight of debt x cost of debt x (1 - tax rate) + weight of preferred equity x dividend yield

According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

r= 3% + 1.1 x 8 = 11.8

equity = 0.4 x 11.8% = 4.72

d = 0.4 x 5 x (1 -0.21) = 1.58

p = 0.2 x 6 =  1.2

11.8 + 1.58 + 1.2 =

Jane currently has $5,300 in her savings account and $2,000 in her checking account at the local bank. Instructions:
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

A

  • M1 change = $500
  • M2 change = $0

B

  • M1 change = -$340
  • M2 change = -$180

Explanation:

A. M1 includes actual liquid cash in hand as well as cash in checking deposits.

M2 includes M1 as well as savings deposits and time deposits amongst others.

M1 change = +$500

$500 went from the Savings account which was not part of M1 to M1.

M2 change = $0

The money went from Savings to Checking which are both part of M2.

B.

M1 change = -$-180 - ( 500 - 180 -160 ) = -$340

Tax of $180 went out of the supply as tax. Jane deposits the remaining cash after paying $160 for goods into the savings account which is not part of M1. That remaining cash is = 500 - 180 - 160 = $160.

M2 change = -500 + 160 + 160 = -$180

For M2, only taxes will reduce money from it because the rest goes to checking deposits and savings accounts both of which are part of M2

What is the first step in effective time management
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The answer is Planning ahead.

Did some research :)

Planning your day ahead is the first and most crucial step towards effective time management. Because each hour you spend planning saves you 10 hours of doing. So, instead of jumping into your workday with no clear vision, devote some time to time management: think ahead of the activities you need to engage in.

Gotiable sells straw hats for $24 each. The April inventory purchases are summarized below. Gotiable sold 142 hats at a hat fest
natulia [17]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1.

<u>Particulars        Units                 Unit Cost           Dollars </u>

Beg. Inv.             84                      $3                    $252

Apr-02                75                      $4                    $300

Apr-14                  66                     $7                    $462

Apr-23                  52                    $8                    $416

Total                      277                                            $1,430

Average cost of one hat is

= Total cost of purchases ÷ Units purchased

= $1,430 ÷ 277 units

= $5.16  

2.  

Ending Inventory in Units = Units purchased - Units sold

= 277 units - 142 units

= 135 units

Now

Value of Ending Inventory = Units in Ending Inventory × Average cost per unit

= 135 units × $5.16

= $696.60

= $697

3

Gross Margin = Units sold × (Selling Price - Cost of goods sold)

= 142 units × ($24 - $5.16)

= $2,675.28

= $2,675

Nonamiya [84]

Answer: Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Round off the values of items to the nearest half dollar are as follows:

Item 1 = $2.00

Item 2 = $1.00

Item 3 = $3.50

Item 4 = $10.00

Item 5 = $6.00

Estimated total cost of items = Item 1 + Item 2 + Item 3 + Item 4 + Item 5

= $2.00 + $1.00 + $3.50 + $10.00 + $6.00

= $22.50

Hence, nearest value is $22.50.

Therefore, option (c) is correct.
